Thread: Main RP: Meteor Valley

@Dog of Hellsing

Dig wasn't really what I wanted to see; it put Baltoy out of range of most of our attacks and required us to wait for it to come back to be able to attack it. The only other option would be to dive into the hole it dug after it, but that would put Sela in a claustrophobic situation while giving Baltoy an extreme advantage. The best we could do was try to draw it out and catch it off guard.

"Sela, I have an idea." This was probably one of the more complicated ideas to communicate I'd have this run, as well as one of the most complicated to execute. While explaining myself, I tried to conjure clear mental images for Sela to access so she could get a better, quicker understanding of what my plan was.

"I need you to use Psychic to make Baltoy think you are in a different area when it attacks." With this, I thought of the ground ahead of us, slight disturbances being made by our movement. With Sela levitating mostly through her mental power, the forces she would exert on the ground would be minimal; we'd be able to mask her actual movements and make psychic shockwaves elsewhere to make it seem like she's moving where the shockwaves are. I had no clue how Baltoy sensed things underground, and the Psychic-like tendencies of the Pokémon could make it more aware of the situation than what I made it out to be.

"Charge up a Shadow Ball while we're waiting, and try to hit Baltoy as soon as it comes out. Just be wary in case it attacks where you actually are." Shadow Ball would hit hard thanks to those very Psychic-like tendencies that could mess up the first part of the plan. If the attack connected, we'd have a great advantage in terms of damage; even if Baltoy connected with Dig, its physical attack power was low compared to Sela's special power, and Sela already took on a Dark-type effectively without exhausting herself in the process. Sela would probably need a break after this battle, but she was doing excellently so far, and though Baltoy was a bit frustrating with Sandstorm and Dig, I couldn't foresee it being a problem against her.

I shook that last thought out of my head. I had confidence in Sela, yes, but I had to keep my mind open, both to the battle and to her. If I missed something, I would be putting my Pokémon at risk, and though Sela, being in the middle of the fight, could easily catch things I couldn't, it wouldn't do me much good if I blocked it off with overconfidence. I focused myself back on the battle, trying to catch wherever Baltoy came up; to hit Baltoy, we had to know where it was, and it wouldn't help if we weren't paying attention to the battle.

Sela went to carry out the orders given to her, her brow furrowing just a little as she concentrated on using her Psychic powers to try and fool Baltoy into thinking she was somewhere she wasn’t. There was a good chance it would work; with several feet of dirt and stone separating it from its target, there was a good chance Baltoy’s own psionic abilities wouldn’t be able to assist it in pinpointing Sela. It would have to rely solely on the vibration picked up by the small horn on its head.

While waiting for Baltoy to reveal itself, Sela also began to power up a Shadow Ball. It was only a few seconds later that the ground started to shake, gently at first, but quickly building in strength until it felt like a concentrated earthquake was gripping the area. Large cracks started to appear in the stone floor of the cave, and then numerous long spikes of rock started to jut into the air. Thanks to having Levitate, Sela was able to rise into the air with no strain on her Psychic powers, thus avoiding the Earth Power attack. A moment later Baltoy’s head popped out of one of the larger cracks; it was obviously looking for Sela, most likely trying to find out why it was no longer sensing her moving around and checking to see if she was fainted or gone.

Sela didn’t waste any time taking advantage of the moment. She lobbed the Shadow Ball, striking Baltoy right in the back of the head. The force of the collision was enough to throw Baltoy forward; it struck the edge of the crack and flipped upside down, sliding a few feet on its back before coming to a halt. Slowly lowering back down to the cave floor, the Gardevoir looked ready to handle whatever Baltoy was going to do next.

Baltoy spent a few moments trying to get up, but it quickly gave up and instead rolled to the nearest crack. It vanished into the fissure, only to pop up out of the ground a moment later several feet from Sela. As it hovered in the air for a moment, its eyes began glowing with an eerie reddish-purple haze. With no warning twin beams of multi-colored light then burst forth, both speeding towards Sela.

Baltoy bounced away after being hit by the Shadow Ball. After that blow, it seemed to be considerably winded, even more so than Sela, who had a battle with a Dark-type prior to engaging against Baltoy. It was a relief to know that we were on top of the battle so far, but we didn't have time to relax; Baltoy recovered itself and counterattacked with two psychic beams.

Sela could certainly take the blows without too much damage; her Psychic-type resistance and her defenses geared towards taking blows similar to the Special ones she deals out would minimize any harm that Psybeam would do. However, it would still hurt, and every little bit of health counted when you weren't sure how many more battles you would have to participate in before a proper rest. Having Sela take the blow mindlessly would just be stupid; it would be much better to try to divert the attack with a counter or to simply get out of the way. And while I had confidence in Sela's Psychic strength being able to overwhelm Baltoy's, getting her out of the way was simply better unless it created a huge opening to hit Baltoy with, which at the moment we didn't need enough to risk it.

"Sela, to the left!" I left it up to Sela whether she Teleported to get out of the way or not; it took minimal energy for her, as it was one of her most basic techniques, but by keeping Baltoy in her sights she could jump on the offensive quicker if needed.

"Trap Baltoy with a Grass Knot!" This attack forcibly grew grass under the target to try and trip them up. Baltoy was floating, so tripping was nearly impossible; instead, Sela could use the grown grass to bind Baltoy to the ground, possibly even holding it still if it tried to dig away. It required more energy than normal though; Baltoy's levitation put it out of range of Grass Knot's reach normally, so more effort would have to be put into growing it.

It wasn’t long before we came upon my second encounter at Meteor Valley. It turned out to be a Ralts, and I didn’t have to think very long at all before deciding to go for it. I already had a Gallde, who traded in a pure Psychic Pokemon’s weakness to Dark for neutral damage to that type while gaining a weakness to Flying-typed attacks. Having a pure Psychic that could stand against strong Flying Pokemon wasn’t a bad thing to have, and I only had a small number of reliable Psychic Pokemon to begin with, so catching another would certainly be fine. And if I happened to come across other Pokemon while visiting the Park, I could always let the Ralts go and claim whatever else I found.

I took a few moments to consider my options as I studied the serene-looking little Pokemon. It was the size of a young child and had ivory skin, looking very much like a toddler with lush lime-green hair that obscured its eyes. It had one large, round horn jutting from its forehead, as well as a second smaller one growing from the back of its skull. These were rarely, if ever, used for offensive purposes, instead acting as conduits for a Ralts to perceive the emotions of others. This one had horns that were a pale shade of salmon, as well as hair that obscured about three-quarters of its face instead of roughly half, marking this particular specimen as a female.

As I watched the Ralts standing there, I might have looked slightly unfocused and bemused, but I was actually processing various ideas and possibilities. Namely I was trying to decide who to use for the battle against this Pokemon. Ripper would normally be my first choice; not only would his Bug typing give him a type advantage over Ralts, but a Ralts could only learn a very, VERY small number of moves that would deal even neutral damage against Ripper’s steel exoskeleton, and only one (that being Fire Punch) that would do effective damage. Ralts in general had very lacking abilities in terms of Attacking strength, though, so even a Fire Punch would probably easily be brushed off by a Pokemon like Ripper, whose species naturally had a very high Defense stat.

The issue was that Ripper had already fought one battle, and it had only been a short time ago. He hadn’t really had time to rest up properly, and even though the battle had been short and he hadn’t taken much damage, I didn’t want to push him to the point where he got exhausted. This was supposed to be a fun trip for us all, and being so fatigued you couldn’t move was no fun at all when you needed to walk around everywhere.

I could always use Ironbeak, whose Sheer Force would let him strike hard with moves that normally had a secondary effect at the sacrifice of that secondary effect happening. Since he could fly he could attack from the air, making it harder for Ralts to attack unless she wanted to Teleport all over the place after him, which wouldn’t exactly be practical, and most likely wouldn’t be something the Pokemon would bother with. Of course, Ironbeak was very strong even without his Sheer Force, to the point that I was concerned with using him in case he struck too hard and knocked Ralts out.

Then there was Kilia, my Absol. Being a Dark Pokemon meant she would be completely immune to Ralts’s Psychic moves, robbing the Pokemon of the attacks it was most familiar with using and would get the most out of. Dark-typed Pokemon also had a natural advantage over Psychic Pokemon since Psychics were weak to Dark attacks. Unfortunately, Kilia was an extremely quirky creature; sometimes I could barely predict what she would do or how she would perform attacks she was given. Not only that, but like Ripper and Ironbeak, her Attack stat was insane, and one attack that was just a BIT too strong could knock Ralts out. This was even more of a threat with Kilia than my other Pokemon, thanks to her Super Luck ability. This allowed her to find the weak spots on a foe much easier, landing critical hits more often than other Pokemon. While useful in battle, it was hardly what we wanted to happen here, where knocking something out made it unfit for capture.

Finally, there was Flutter, my outgoing Venomoth. Like Ripper and Kilia, she had a natural advantage over Ralts since she was a Bug Pokemon, but she was also Poison-typed, meaning she would take extra damage from Ralts’s Psychic attacks. In all honesty I wasn’t too concerned with that, though; Flutter knew Quiver Dance, a move that boosted the user’s Speed, Special Attack, and Special Defense stats, as well as Roost, which allowed her to rest for a moment in order to regain up to half her health. She would be able to stat up a little and then recover her hit points, letting her shrug off Ralts’s attacks like they weren’t super-effective at all. On top of that, she, like Ironbeak, could fly around to avoid Ralts’s attacks.

Making my choice, I recalled Ripper and pulled Flutter’s PokeBall free, releasing the lavender-bodied insect from the orb in a brief yet bright burst of white light. She flittered about my head as she materialized, chittering happily as she flew around. Eventually she landed on my shoulder and rubbed her head on my cheek, then took wing again and flew over to greet Ironbeak, who had landed on a large stone nearby. The two bumped foreheads before Flutter greeted my Ranger and his Pokemon, and after all that was done, she flew over to say hello to Ralts. She then thought better of it, not knowing the Wild Pokemon’s personality, and instead flew back over to me to land on my shoulder again.

“Silly,” I chuckled, reaching up to pat her head. She made a jovial chirping noise, then gave her wings a powerful flap to show she was ready to get on with the battle. I laughed again and nodded, pausing just long enough to get an idea of what to do before giving the Venomoth her commands. “Okay, so here’s what we’ll do. We’re going to try and get this over with as quickly as possible to try and keep your hit points intact. First, lay down a good layer of Sleep Powder to knock Ralts out, or at the very least make her so drowsy she can’t concentrate properly on attacking. After that, bolster your Speed and Special Defense with a Quiver Dance, then go in for a Psychic.”

Flutter gave a shrill, brief chitter to acknowledge her orders, launching off my shoulder as she flew over to Ralts. My plan was a simple one; knock Ralts out so she couldn’t attack or counterattack, then have Flutter get in a Quiver Dance so she could withstand any Psychic attacks Ralts managed to fire off. Finally, we were going with Psychic as our offensive move because it was one of the safest options, since Ralts would have a natural resistance to it. Even with her Tinted Lens ability boosting the strength of moves that weren’t very effective, and her Special Attack being increased by Quiver Dance, Psychic was still one of the moves least likely to do enough damage to knock Ralts out while still dealing a fair amount. There was a chance that it could drop Ralts’s Special Defense and make her even more susceptible to Flutter’s Special attacks, but the chance of that happening was low enough that I wasn’t too concerned by it. Even if we should be that unlucky, Flutter had a few basic attacks she could use that would deal minimal damage, even with a boosted Special Attack stat on her end and a lowered Special Defense for Ralts.

As she flew over to Ralts, Flutter began flapping her wings in what would appear to be an erratic manner to those not familiar with the moths. It would seem like she should crash, but Venomoth had evolved to specially stay in the air even with their wings going every which way. This allowed them to shed specialized scales from their wings; there were different scales that would only be shed if a Venomoth’s wings were beat in a certain way. This rather crazy tempo shook free loose scales that had a power sedative coating them; when breathed in, the sedative entered the victim’s bloodstream and quickly knocked them out. The scales themselves looked like purple-colored snow as they fell from Flutter’s wings, and the sunlight hit a few of them in such a manner that it reflected from their surfaces, casting tiny rainbows into the air.

If we were lucky and Ralts got a full dose of Sleep Powder, she would be under within moments. If such was the case, Flutter would move on to her Quiver Dance. Each Pokemon had their own unique way of using this move, and in Flutter’s case it was actually quite unnerving to watch. Basically she would land on the ground and hold her wings straight up; her entire body would then seize up and begin to tremble. At first it would barely be noticeable, but it would quickly get stronger until her whole body was shaking almost violently, like she was being gripped by a powerful seizure. She would then spread her wings and proceed to sway back and forth, almost as if horrendously dizzy, and all the while her wings would be rapidly beating. This lasted several seconds, when she would abruptly fall still for another second or two. The first time I had seen her use this move, I had been scared out of my mind, thinking that something had happened and she was actually dying. When I realized she was okay, I had been too shaken by the show and had needed to forfeit the battle we’d been in. I had then promptly taken her to a PokeCenter to have her checked out and been assured that Flutter’s way of performing Quiver Dance was perfectly normal and safe. It had been months before I’d felt comfortable enough with it to have her use it again, though.

Finally would be Psychic, if things went as planned. Flutter was usually most comfortable with attacking from the air, but since she would be grounded by Quiver Dance, there was a chance she might just attack from the ground. The three horns growing from her head would radiate a powerful Psychic aura, one that would be easily visible as a maroon-colored haze around her upper skull. The haze would condense into an orb, which would then be launched at Ralts.

With the right amount of luck, we could finish this battle without Flutter taking a single hit.

I was in a frantic state of affairs. Work had picked up and I was in the middle of finishing paperwork when another run came across my desk. I was excited because it beat doing paperwork, but it also meant I would be spending another day out in the field in an area that I was not fond of, Meteor Valley.

For some reason I just didn’t like going there, and it was the place I had been to most since becoming a ranger. I didn’t mind the Ghost and Dark types that lived there, but the environment was just ugly/ But I had a job to do, and I was going to do it no matter if I hated the place.

I finished scratching my signature on some papers stating where I was going and who I was with. Once that was done I dropped it off in the outgoing box and grabbed all my gear. I strapped it on as I walked into the transportation tile. In the blink of an eye I was a the front gates leading to the Meteor Valley. Tiberius wasn’t there so I decided to study his file while I waited for him to show up.

“Well I guess all this fog means were close to Meteor Valley what do you think”

“Scizor”

Scizor had that look on her face she new that soon she get a chance to knock the light out of some unlucky pokemon in the Valley, but she would have to wait until we got there. I took out Scizors containment ball, and had her return to it. I took out my pokedex as I started to walk up the trail I checked the map on it the Ranger outpost was not far from were was. I got up the trail when someone come into my site, I could not who it was but I had a feeling that it was a Park Ranger, and if so the fun was about to begin.

It wasn’t long before I spotted the young man coming up the trail to the valley. I waved a greeting to him and waited for him to get closer within hearing range.

“Hey, welcome to Meteor Valley.” I shook his hand admitted us to the park.

Meteor Valley was a grassy valley flanked by rocky flanks filled with caves galore. Ghost and Dark types loved this place, with a few other species scattered about. I found that most people came here for Abra, Murkrow, and Gastly. All were pretty good Pokemon and ranked among the powerful ranks.

“Well, let’s see what we can find.” I consulted my iPad and saw that he had brought along a Pokeplayer with a Gastly voice disk. “I see you are trying to find a Gastly. If so you might want to start that disc playing,” I suggested.

Before he could reply I heard a soft bouncing coming from the trail. I looked up to see the green form of a Reuniclus coming down the trail. The Pokemon waved one of its jello like limbs at us.

“Wow, a good start to your run,” I said to Tiberius. “You want one?”

I got all the way up the trail, and sure enough it was a Park Ranger at the top. I walked up to him, and he shook my hand welcoming me to Meteor Valley. My Rangers name was Gaius Tyrannius after I shook his hand he took out a ipad, he then suggested I start my pokeplayer if I wanted to find a Gastly but before he could finish a bouncing sound come from the trail. When I turned around a jello like pokemon was coming down the path, I took out my pokedex to what it was. The pokemon was a Reuniclus. Then my Ranger ask me if I wanted it.

“No I don’t I would like to get one, but not now I’m going to use a pokedoll”

I sat down, and took out one of my pokedoll and through it at Reuniclus. Then I took out my pokeplayer, and opened the tray I popped opened my DVD case, and took out the Voice Disc for Gastly, I then put it in the player, and pushed play on it.

“No, I don’t. I would like to get one, but not now, I want to use a Pokedoll.”

“Alright, let’s see if the Pokemon will leave us alone.” I made a shooing motion at the Psychic Pokemon but it simply continued to stare at us. The didn’t want to leave.

I heard a sigh come from Tiberius as he passed over a Pokedoll. I took the plush toy from him, gave it a squeeze, and tossed it at the Reuniclus. The wild Pokemon immediately went after the doll, clearing the path.

“Let’s go to the lake at the end of the valley,” I said to the client.

I wanted to go this way because a wide assortment of Pokemon visited the valley floor to forage and I was sure we would run across a few good Pokemon.

We hadn’t gone very far from the spot where our first encounter was when a rustling in the grass garnered my attention. It was a small Purrloin chasing a field mouse.

“A Purrloin, they’re common in these parts.”

Sela, being a Psychic Pokemon, was more at home doing things via the power of her mind. When Siless ordered her to dodge to the left, the Emotion Pokemon vanished from sight as she retreated into the space between space. The Psybeam passed where she’d been a moment later, and in almost the same instant, Sela reappeared to the left of the attack. She then swung her arms up, using her psionic ability to forcibly grow plants from the ground. Since there was no grass in the cave, it turned out to be mushrooms, their growth pushed into a frenzied overdrive by Sela’s mental goading as well as the rain still falling over the battlefield.

Baltoy was completely unprepared for this sort of counterattack, and the variety of mushrooms shot up to ensnare the lower half of its body. It flailed about for a moment, thrown off-balance by its struggling and the immobility caused by the fungi twined around it; it tipped over backwards and thrashed about even more, confused and clearly desperate to escape a trap it had obviously never encountered before.

Mushrooms. Can't say I expected those. I guess I should've, but…

"Sela, hit Baltoy with a Magical Leaf!" Baltoy was in the perfect position to try and capture it; all it needed was a bit more damage for a really good chance of success, and Magical Leaf would do just that. Sela's Magical Leaf attack was partially Psychic; as she didn't have leaves on her person, she created them solely for the attack. For the most part, it was identical to a Grass-type's Magical Leaf, beyond the focus required to use it and the Grass-types natural affinity for the move; Magical Leaf was still highly accurate and still moderately powered, and it still hit weaknesses to Grass-type attacks, which is what we needed.

As Sela materialized the rainbow of leaves for her attack, I tossed one of my Park Balls to her to add to the leaves. She caught it near-effortlessly, and all I could do after that was wait to see if Baltoy was captured by the attack.

Baltoy was in a prime position to be attacked; unable to move and too distracted to ready a counterattack, it was completely open for whatever Siless decided would be the best course of action. Turned out that was a Magical Leaf, a strange attack that struck with leaves conjured from an unexplained type of energy. After telling Sela what to do, Siless tossed a Park Ball up to her, which she deftly caught. She then flicked her wrist, sending her attack towards Baltoy.

The leaves struck Baltoy a moment later, some of them also hitting the mushrooms holding the Pokemon in place and slicing through them. Even though this caused Baltoy to be released from its imprisonment, it was stunned by the attack and could do nothing more than slide to the rain-slick cave floor, unmoving.

Sela wasted no time tossing the Park Ball at her foe as she lowered to the ground, landing softly as the Park Ball bounced off Baltoy’s back and popped open. The Pokemon was drawn inside and the Ball clicked shut, wiggling feebly before coming to a rest. I went over and picked up the Ball, making sure it was secure before facing my Trainer and grinning.

“Looks like you guys are on a roll today! Are you ready to keep going, or do you wanna take a moment to rest first?”

Sara asked if we wanted to rest a bit before going on. Sela didn't seem to want to stop completely; indeed she responded by asking to keep walking. I didn't think I would be using her for the next battle, since she just had two straight battles, and she would be the one to actually need a rest anyways. If she wanted to relax by walking about, there wasn't much of a reason not to.

"Let's keep moving. Sela seems to have a bit too much energy to rest up with a break." I was interested in seeing what came up next. Sela did an excellent job with her two battles, but it was about time that Missy was able to come out and Sela take a turn resting during battle.

The Reuniclus, would not take its eyes off us it looked happy to see people, but I wanted to move on. I gave my pokedoll to my Ranger, and he gave it a squeeze, then through the pokedoll at Reuniclus. The pokemon went right for it, and we left. Ranger Gaius said he wanted to take me down to the lake at the end of the valley, because a lot of pokemon go down to the valley floor. So it would be a nice place to look for pokemon, we set off and it was not long before we come across a pokemon chasing a field mouse. I pulled out my pokedex to what it was. The pokemon was a Purloin, a Dark type pokemon this was not a pokemon I wanted.

“I don’t want this pokemon I would like to try, and sneak pass this pokemon. But if we can’t I have another pokedoll I can use”

I took out the pokedoll, and got ready to hand it to my Ranger I then took out my pokeplayer, and hit play on it in hope that a Gastly would hear it and came.

“I don’t want this Pokemon,” Tiberius said, disappointed by the cat-like creature. “I would like to try and sneak pass this Pokemon. But fi we can’t I have a another Pokedoll I can use.”

As I tried to steer us past the Purrloin it stopped chasing the mouse and strolled up to yes. I grabbed the doll from Tiberius’s outstretched hand and tossed it at the Dark type. The Purrloin playfully attacked the doll, letting us by it.

But as I tried to led us past the cat Pokemon another cat creature stalked towards us. It was the evolved form of Purrloin, a Liepard. It was probably a parent and didn’t like us being near its child.

“How do you want to deal with this guy?” I pointed at the oncoming Pokemon.
